Reviews for Podcast or Perish: Peer Review and Knowledge Creation for the 21st Century

This is a unique, innovative, and thorough treatment of the contested subject of peer review and nontraditional scholarly output. The authors deconstruct, critique, and reimagine peer review in general while examining the potential of (and in many cases actual instances of) podcasting peer review as a medium and as a meta forum for reimagining this process. This forward thinking, optimistic, and solution-oriented volume presents a solid case for legitimizing podcasts as scholarly output. As a reader, one feels to be in the room with these authors, as they would want us to - that is, in fact, their central point. --Kathleen Collins, Professor, John Jay College of Criminal Justice, City University of New York, USA
